Summary

The prevalence of eating disorders is particularly high among people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). These abnormalities, such as "diabulimia," are frequently responsible for poor insulin therapy management and, consequently, chronic glycemic imbalance, exposing them to an increased risk of complications. Their detection and management unfortunately remain insufficient in current practice.

However, to date, no study has addressed the question of the prevalence and impact of eating disorders in this context. Our research hypotheses are therefore as follows:

1. The existence of an eating disorder is likely frequently overlooked and, therefore, not taken into account in patients with T1D initiating semi-automated insulin therapy with BF.
2. The existence of an eating disorder could impair the performance of the BF device in terms of improving glycemic control in patients with T1D initiating this treatment method.

Patients clinical characteristics, glycemic monitoring parameters ad questionnaires answers will be recorded. The prevalence of eating disorders will be calculated, and the association between the presence of these abnormalities and baseline clinical characteristics and glycemic control parameters will be analyzed.
